Five new cases of Middle East Respiratory Syndrome have been confirmed in South Korea and another person has died from the virus, the country's Ministry of Health said Monday.

That brings 16 deaths attributed to the virus and 150 total cases.

The outbreak has sparked international concern, stalled the nation's economy and resulted in over 100,000 canceled tourist visits to the country.

But in one sign as a possible return to normalcy, hundreds of schools across South Korea re-opened to students on Monday -- 440 schools remain shut due to MERS concerns. The World Health Organization had recommended re-opening schools last week.
